Tech-002: School, Chaos, and My First Hacks

I wasn’t exactly the model student. In fact, I spent most of my school years being a nuisance — rarely paying attention in class, constantly in trouble, and at one point even getting excluded. But while I didn’t thrive in the traditional classroom, I found my spark elsewhere: in IT and electronics.

In IT I used adobe Dreamweaver to create my first html website.

For my work experience I spent 1 week of it in the IT department at school and one week in a car garage working on cars

The highlight of school however was hacking the school's ranger remote control software during a lesson or creating a Rick roll virus.

Upon leaving school I did not take my exams due to breaking both my arms in a motorcycle accident, when I should have been revising, they had to use my coursework and mock results.

My results where I got mostly Ds apart from IT where I received a triple Distinction and electronics where I got a B

Looking back

my school years were chaotic. But even in the chaos, the signs were there: I had a natural pull toward technology, curiosity, and breaking things just to see how they worked. Those early ‘hacks’ and projects set the foundation for everything that came later — from building real systems to turning around businesses.”
